Thai Sweet & Sour Fish (Ikan Masak Masam Manis ala Thai)

 My SIL sent some fresh Belanak from kampung which is my hubby's favourite fish (very rarely found in Miri). She packed it in a cool box and put it in an express bus first thing in the morning which reached Miri by end of the day. As my hubby likes it simply deep fried, I made some sweet sour sauce with Tom Yam flavour to accompany the fried fish.... whole plate of dish was wiped cleaned after the dinner.
